    There is no God. That said, I find comfort in the fact that they're tagging it along with WoW, and not its strategic predecessors. I don't care about the former.

    I hope it will turn out to be total crap (which is most propable). I never played WoW, but I hate it because of how popular it became (a situation I call the Naruto syndrome) and that would be a well placed stab.

    Naruto syndrome indeed. From a specialist target audience, to every fat, fad-following American brat, pleased by any new release as long as they can call people n00bs. I wanted it when it was in beta stages, but my parents were stern and I ended up never playing it. Now I simply don't want to.

    Back on-topic, would it take anyone two guesses to see the motivation for a film?

    They finally finalized him as the director?

    Fuck, it would probably have been a success even if they had skipped most of the animations and used LARP:ers instead of actors. All they need is a nice trailer, the WoW-trademark and, of course, a lot of PR.

    I don't get all the WoW hate, to be honest. It's the most popular MMO game currently running right now by FAR. Enough people like it so that it cannot be complete crap. Is mere popularity reason to hate something? Grow up.

    More on topic, I'm not sure what to think about the movie. The Warcraft universe certainly has enough lore to fill a movie, but I'm not sure if it could be done well in a movie. It depends on the script and the director, and I guess they could have done worse with the director. It could have been the dreaded Uwe Boll....

    You think so? I really LIKED Blood Raine, and I haven't even played the game. Oh, that lovely sex scene in the prison... So unnecessary, yet a masterpiece. :roll:


    It reminds me that it was a while ago I watched House of the Dead 1 and 2. Crap, now I have a urge to watch "niggus and bitches" being killed by zombies. Also, tits, something that occurs in ALL his movies, oddly enough. Every time I see a new Boll-movie, there's something in my brain telling me "Hey, shouldn't there be some breasts soon?" and voilá, there they are.

    I hate MMO's in general. There's nothing about them that appeals to me. Firstly, you've to pay for it month, which I consider to be the geek equivalent of prostitution. Secondly, other than the idea of teamwork making some quests enjoyable, I see nothing appealing about it. I care nothing for the popularity. I hate MMO's based on my refusal to pay month-to-month, and the fact that FAR too many of them are overly simplistic, and oriented towards generating massive revenue than creating a truly interesting gaming atmosphere. So maybe they hate them because their rebel-without-a-cause faggots, but I just thought I'd point out that some of us have semi-legit reasoning for our disgust.

    My problem is with MMO's in general, but Warcraft, I had an attachment to. It was a form of desecration. Flicking through the manuals of Warcraft: Orcs and Humans and Warcraft II grant some nostalgia. Warcraft III was enjoyable also. But something about WoW is different. It's been adapted to the MMO format, meaning most aspects are forced, and the atmosphere is cramped by countless players, many of them idiots and brats. That's why the thought of a Fallout MMO makes me wretch.

    Need I mention real-world trading?

    Sadly I'm not allowed to play WoW. Once Rosie introduced me to the Fall Out games and noticed how easily addicted I got I decided not to risk my marriage.

    Oh dear lord. This movie is going to be so very fucked up. I need to see it, just to give it the MST3K treatment.

    I played WoW when it was still new, and it was alright for a while. But the population of twelve year old fucktards with entitlement issues grew and grew and I eventually went 'FUCK this shit, fuck all you little bastards, I have better things to do than to be abused because I don't like it when people DEMAND that I give them the fruits of my labour for free. Die in a fire, you little shits!'

    Such a pity the obscenity filters killed it so badly, it was a good way to go.

    Uno: When you can't walk to the toilet for a relaxing piss without hearing about something ten times on your way there, you will happen to hate it quite quickly. I find myself punking with things I would normally like if not for the fact, that hords of 12-year olds like it the stupid way and have an extreme urge to share that fact with the world.

    Secundo: Good sir, please keep in mind that most people are retards, while the most of what's left are idiots. The fact, that a lot of people like something does not prove the quality of the mentioned something. Example: sparkling vampires.

    Also, 'rpatz' for being stupid enough to act the part. And being in the sequel. And because of that stupid Internet memo. Mostly because I just got sent a nude photo of a lookalike in the bath...
